Most printers are not made to be US specific, but for worldwide use. So why
would a printer manufacturer want to use Tabloid/Ledger when it is obvious to
them that they are both 11x17.  Portrait vs Landscape works on 11x17 just like
it does for the other sizes.

Both Irfranview and Adobe Acrobat refer to printers as US B (11x17) and Super B
(13x19) which is EXACTLY how my Epson Artisan 1439 Refers to those sizes.
Sometimes the US standard is just plain stupid.
